Mr. Editor: It is not that I expect
to ever attain to notoriety as a writer,
that you are requested to publish this

II. P. Bell introduced the following
of the Atlanta Examiner, an article on
the l * Know Nothing Platforms” which
is so glaringly bold in trying to deceive
the people as to the real spirit and .in
tf-ntioo of the 4th sec. of the platform,
that the editor goes beyond all reason
and common sense, but still the “ Au-
ties” show it about, and pretend to be
lieve that which common sense teaches
any rational being is as false as he him
self is to the interest of the country.—
The Editor goes on to say : “ In other
Resolution, which was unanimously words > if to-morrow, a law abolishing

in this Convention, be entitled to one

teason to suppose that it will not
carry out the balance. Now, the Ex

SUCCESSFULLY TREATED BY IN
HALATION OF MEDICATED VA
PORS.
\Y JOHNSON STEWART ROSE, M. D.
) Fellow of the Royal Collego of Physici
ans, nnd for years Senior Physician in the
London Royal Infirmary for diseases of the
Lungs.
In the treatment of Consumption by In
halation, 1 have obtained results which war
rant me in asserting that it is now as cura
ble as di-eascs of the Stomach and Liver.
Breathing medicine directly into the
Lungs is certainly the rational mode of at
tacking tho disease, and like many other
great aud beneficent discoveries’ it tjgem
strauge why such treatment was not resort
ed to loug ago. Where there is life, there is
surely hope for the most seeming hopeless
cases, as throughout all the stages of this in
sidious disease, the wonderful and beneficent
effects of its treatment are soon apparent. In
cases also of Bronchitis, Asthma, &c., the
ufculing of powders aud vapors has been
eminently successful, and to those suffering
under any of the above nami d complaints,
can guarantee speedy and certain relief. I
have pleasure in referring to 207 names,
residents of New York, and neighborhood,
who have been restored to vigorous health
About one third of the above number, ac
cording to the patients own statement?, were
considered hopeless cases.
The inlialiug Method is soothing safe und
speedy, and consists in the administration
of medicines in such a manner they arc con
veyed into the Lungs in the form of vapor, and
produce their action at the scat of the disease,
ts practical success is destined to revolu-
ticnize the opinions of the medical world,
and eslablishe the entir curability of Con
sumption.
Applicants will please state if they have
ever bled from the Lungs, if they have lost
flesh, have a cough, night sweats and fever
turns—what and how much they expectorate,
v hat the condition of their stomach and
bowels. The necessary Medicines, appara
tus, its., will bo forwarded to any part.
TERMS—Five dollars, consultation fee.
Balance of fee payable only when the pati
ents report tlu-mselvos convalescent.
RECOMMENDATION BY PHYSICIANS.
We, the undersigned practitioners in me
dicine, cheerfully and heartily recommend
Dr. Roses method of treating diseases of the
Lungs and Throat, as the best and most efiec-
tual ever introduced into medical practice. Our
convictions are bnsed upon having several
of ourow n patients, confirmed consumptives
restored to vigorous health after a few
months treatment by Dr, Rose, in tho above
named diseases the application of *•’Medicat
ed Vapors,” inhaled directly into the Lungs
may be justly considered a great boon to
suffering humanity, rendering Consumption
a perfectly curable disease.
Dr. Rose dfiserves well of the profession
for his unwearied labors in bringing the In
haling Method to such a degree of perfec
tion.

Sogers’ Liverwort & Tar,
For the complete cure of Coughs, Colds,
Influenza, Asthma, Bronchitis, Spitting of
Blood, and all other Lung Complaints
tending to Consumption.
T HIS preparation is getting into use all
over our Country. The numerous let
ters we receive from our various agents,
informing us of cures effected iu their imme
diate neighborhoods, warrant ns in saying
it is one of the best, if not the very best
Cough Medicine now before the public. It
almost invariably relieves and not unfre-
quently cures the very worst cases. When
all other Cough preparations have failed,
this has relieved the patient, as Druggists,
dealers in Medicines, and Physieians can
testify. Ask tho Agent in your nearest
town, what has been his experience of the
effects of this medicine. If he has been
selling it for any length of time lie will tell
you IT IS THE BEST MEDICINE EXTANT.
Below we give a few extracts from letters
we hare received lately" regarding tbe vir
tues of this medicine.
Dr. S. S. Oslin, of Knoxville, Ga., says:—
“ 1 hove beeu using your ..Liverwort and
Tar very extensively in my practice for three

One Hundredth Edition (500,000] 18am., pp.95<L
[os Fim nrti, eitu ■ixdikq, $.100.]
A standard work of established reputation
found classed in the catalogue; of the great
trade sales in New-York, Philadelphia, and
other cities, and sold by the principal book
sellers in the United States. It was first
published in 1847, since which time
Five Hundred Thousand Copies
have been sold, of which there were upwards
of one hundred thousand sent by
mail, attesting the high estimation in*
which it is held as a reliable popular Medi
cal BOOK FOR EVERY FEMALE
the author having devoted his exclusive at
tention to the treatment of complaints pecu—
liar|to females,in respeetto which he b yearly
consulted by thousands, boih in person and
by letter.
Here every woman can discover, by com
paring her own symptoms.with those de
scribed, the nature, character, causes of, and
the proper remedies for. her Complaints.
The wife about becoming a mother 1ms <
often need of instuctioh and advice'of the
utmost importance to her future health, ia
respect to which her sensitiveness forbids
consulting a medical gentleman, will find
such instruction aud advice, and also explain*
many symptoms which otherwise would oc
casion anxiety or alarm, ns all the pecnliari-
ties incident to her situation are described.
How many are suffering from obstructione-
or irregularities peculiarto the female system,
which undermine tbe health, the effects of
which theyave ignorant, and tot which tbein
delicacy forbids i
Many suffer f
the wpinbj,
debility,&c.) Many nre. in constant agony
for many mouths preceding confinement.—
Many havedifficult, if not dangerous delive
ries, and slow an^ uncertain recoveries.—
Some whose lives are" hazarded during such
time, will each find ni its pOjfes tlie m^nns of
prevention, amelioration and relief-''- ...
Itb of course impracticable to convey
fully the various subjects treated of, as they
are of a nature strict|y intended for the mar
ried o.* those contemplating marriage..
In consequence of tbe universal popular!-
of the work, as evidenced by its extraor-
inary sale, various impositions have beets
attempted, as well on booksellers as on the
public, by imitations of the title page, spuri
ous editions, and surreptitious infringements'
